2/12 MIRRORBALL MB30+MB40+MB50
OVERHEAD RIGGING
Important:
The installation must be carried out by qualified service personal only. Improper installation can
result in serious injuries and/or damage to property. Overhead rigging requires extensive experience!
Working load limits should be respected, certified installation materials should be used, the installed device
should be inspected regularly for safety.
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during rigging, de-rigging and servicing.
The device should be installed out of reach of people and outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
Before rigging make sure that the installation area c
an hold a minimum point load of 10times the device’s weight.
Always use a certified safety cable that can hold 12times the weight of the mirror ball. This secondary safety
attachment should be installed to the second safety eye in a way that no part of the installation can drop more than
20cm if the main attachment fails.
Make sure that the chain used to hang the mirror ball can hold at least 12times the weight of the mirror ball. The length
of the chain must never exceed 100cm.
If you use a mirror ball motor, make sure to use an appropriate motor that can hold the weight of the mirror ball.
In order to have a safe installation, you MUST follow the installation instructions supplied with the mirror ball.
Make sure the rotation of the mirror ball is never slowed down or stopped by surrounding materials.
The operator has to make sure that the safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert
before using them for the first time. The installations should be inspected every year by a skilled person to be sure that
safety is still optimal.
MAINTENANCE
Make sure the area below the installation place is free from unwanted persons during servicing.
During inspection the following points should be checked:
All screws used for installing the device and any of its parts should be tightly fastened and may not be corroded.
Housings, fixations and installations spots (ceiling, truss, suspensions) should be totally free from any deformation.
When an optical mirror is visibly damaged due to cracks or deep scratches, it must be replaced.
The cleaning of the optical mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency
depends on the environment in which the fixture operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause
greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s optics.
Clean with a soft cloth using normal glass cleaning products.
Always dry the parts carefully.
Clean the mirrors at least every 90 days.
